Abstract/Notes: The current study aims to explore the effectiveness of Montessori Method in the Algerian EFL primary classrooms. This research was conducted through mixed method (qualitative and quantitative methods), and the data was collected through Observation and questionnaire. For the observation, the participants were third year EFL primary teacher and her learners, who are 30 students divided into 17 girls and 13 boys, in Saad Saoud El Messoud primary school in Bordj Bou Arreridj, Algeria. The participants of the questionnaire were 30 EFL primary teachers, it is an online questionnaire conducted through Google form platform. The aim of the research is to find out whether the EFL primary teachers are implementing the principles of the MM or not, and to figure out if the manners, actions, and behaviours used by the teacher are appropriate for the learning process or not. However, after the answers of the questionnaire and the 9 hours of observation during 3 months, the authors find out that the MM is not implemented by the EFL primary teachers, because there is no freedom, no choices, and no appropriate materials and environment for the young learners. Thus, the findings encourage the need for the EFL teachers to identify and imitate the aspects of the Montessori Method
